What the U.S. government is doing in relation to public health is so irrational and harmful that it’s almost impossible to process it. They are lying about how vaccines are tested. They are lying about vaccines containing “aborted fetus debris”. This is public health malpractice.

New in PN: Arresting judges is a 5-alarm escalation "It’s not just that Dugan was arrested, but how she was arrested. The whole point was to cause a scene. There’s no allegation she was attempting to evade arrest, but the FBI still forced a sitting judge to do a perp walk at her place of work."

Streaming CBC coverage for the Canadian election and, much like when I watch the BBC, I am almost crying with relief to see proper journalism. The contrast to the highly-produced, pro-power sycophantic, vapid political "analysis" provided by news networks and cables in the US is crystal clear.

In medieval times, monstrous tyrants would put the decapitated heads on their enemies on pikes. Today since they're being disappeared to die elsewhere, the same types of monsters put photos of them on the lawn of the White House. That's the framing the media should be doing for this.

Donald Trump keeps losing in court. That's why he's lashing out at judges who go against his authoritarian agenda — even going as far as to have them arrested. His regime is starting to crack bit by bit. Keep up the pressure. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

This is an enormous theft—not just privatizing a government function with a worse and more expensive for-profit substitute, but also a massive government financial data heist—and on the other side of it everyone needs to end up broke and imprisoned to deter them and others from doing it again.

“One of the top MS-13 members”? This woman is an officer of the court and the Attorney General of the United States. She knows that she wields immense power and responsibility. Yet here she is on national TV, making baseless claims about a guy her boss wrongly sent to a gulag in El Salvador.

Karoline Leavitt is a liar, propagandist & accomplice to a criminal regime. “There is never going to be a world in which [Kilmar Abrego Garcia] is going to live a peaceful life in MD because he is a foreign terrorist & MS-13 gang member,” she said w/o evidence about a man who's committed no crime.

"Human trafficking" now? That's a new one. The longer they leave Kílmar Ábrego García to rot in the CECOT, the longer his fake rap sheet gets. He has one arrest, for loitering. But within a week or two they'll be saying he's the Zodiac Killer.

Hundreds of scholars have had their visas revoked and dozens have been detained. What’s exceptional about Öztürk’s case is that her detention was caught on camera. What’s scariest, immigration lawyers say, is how little is known about all the others.

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.
